Irish IoT firm Asavie announces 106 jobs, doubling its workforce

Ireland’s internet of things (IoT) portfolio is growing once again with the news that the IoT software developer Asavie is to create 106 jobs in its Dublin office over the next two-and-a-half years.

Founded in Ireland in 2004,Asavie now has offices in both the UK and the US, along with its Dublin HQ, and it is now looking to use its new recruits to expand its IoT platform, PassBridge.

According to Asavie, PassBridge enables mobile operators and original equipment manufacturers (OEM) to rapidly launch, scale and secure end-user focused enterprise mobility and IoT services, with current clients including Irish telecom players Eir, Three and Vodafone, as well as AT&T and Telefonica.

The 106 jobs being created by Asavie is one of its largest expansions to date and will see the company hire across a variety of roles in engineering, sales, product management, marketing and support.

The announcement is considerable for Asavie as it more than doubles its current number of employees from 80 to 186 at its headquarters in Dublin 4 and comes following it recently being presented with the Outstanding International Growth Award by the Irish Software Association, as well as being named a Deloitte Technology Fast 50 2015 winner.

Speaking of the announcement, Ralph Shaw, CEO of Asavie, said: “The Asavie team is very proud of this expansion to our operations. We have experienced phenomenal growth over the past few years. This latest evolution of the company builds on the success of Asavie’s world-class technology; our talented team, the strength of our global partnerships and the huge demand from companies to secure and control the costs of their mobility and innovative IoT projects as they scale. We have created a fantastically rewarding work environment and are looking to hire people who want to shape the next generation of the internet.”
